Amaç: Antropometrik çalışmalar kimliklendirmenin cinsiyet tespiti aşamasında önemli bilgiler sunmaktadır. Multidedektör bilgisayarlı tomografi (MDBT) yöntemi vücut oluşumlarının hızlı ve yüksek çözünürlük ile ince kesitlerinin incelenmesini sağlar. Bu çalışmada Türk toplumuna ait her iki farklı cinsiyette referans aralıklar oluşturulmasına katkıda bulunmak amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntem:Çalışma MDBT ile sakrumları görüntülenen ve yaşları 20 ile 80 arasında değişen 100 birey (50 kadın-50 erkek) üzerinde yapıldı. Çalışmamızda ölçülerek kayıt altına alınan parametreler; sakrum genişliği, korpus vertebra genişliği, korpus vertebra çapı, kornular arası mesafe, sakral hiatus uzunluğu, sakral kanal uzunluğudur. Bulgular: Sakral vertebra'ya ait korpus genişlikleri erkeklerde kadınlardan anlamlı (p˂0.05) derecede yüksek tespit edildi. Benzer şekilde sakral hiatus uzunluğu erkeklerde anlamlı (p˂0.05) derecede daha yüksekti.Sonuç: Sonuç olarak çalışmamızda elde ettiğimiz ortalamaların genelde literatür bilgileri ile örtüştüğünü gördük. Bazı farklılıkların yaş, cinsiyet ve ırk gibi faktörlere bağlı olduğunu düşünmekteyiz. Elde ettiğimiz bu verilerin radyoloji, anatomi ve adli tıp gibi alanlarda bilim adamları ve klinisyenlere faydalı olacağı kanaatindeyiz.Objective: Anthropometric studies provide important information on gender determination stages of identification. The multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) method provides rapid and highresolution examination of thin sections of body formations. In this study, it was aimed to contribute to the establishment of reference intervals for both sexes of Turkish society. Material and Method:The study was performed on 100 individuals (50 females-50 males) aged 20 to 80 years whose bony structures were visualized with multidetector computerized tomography. Parameters that can be measured and recorded in our study are Sacrum width, corpus vertebra width, corpus vertebra diameter, intercornual distance, hiatus sacralis length, sacral canal length.Results: We investigated whether there was a statistically significant difference between men and women. The corpus widths of sacral vertebra were significantly higher in males than in females (p˂0.05). Similarly, the length of hiatus sacralis was significantly higher in males than in males (p˂0.05). Conclusion:As a conclusion, we have seen that the average obtained in our study generally overlaps with literature. We think that some of the differences are due to factors such as age, gender, and race. We believe that these data we obtain will be useful to scientists and clinicians in fields such as radiology, anatomy and forensic medicine.

Hydatid cyst disease is very rare in pregnancy having an incidence of 1 in 20,000 pregnancies and there is no recommended standard treatment. Both surgical and medical modalities have been tried. Modalities that do not use ionizing radiation such as ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging should be preferred for diagnosis and evaluating acute conditions in a pregnant patient. In this article, a rare pelvic cyst hydatid case surrounding the uterus and MRI findings in a young pregnant patient who was coincidentally determined is represented.

A B S T R A C TIndirect inguinal hernia is most commonly seen in infants. Prevalence is lower in girls. Both uterus and ovary including hernia sac is extremely rare. Early diagnosis and surgery is critical, since strangulation and necrosis of these organs may lead to serious conditions and infertility. Doppler Ultrasound (US) is the effective method in differentiation and diagnosis of inguinal hernias of infants. In this very rare case, according to the literature knowledge, we aimed to represent the sonographic and surgical features of a 40 day old vaginally delivered term female infant admitted to our clinic with right groin mass and diagnosed as indirect incarcerated inguinal hernia containing viable uterus, fallopian tube and ovary via US. She went under early surgery through which ovary, fallopian tube and uterus were found in hernia sac. All herniated organs were reduced into peritoneal cavity and the hernia sac was high -ligated.

Superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome is a rare syndrome with symptoms including nausea, vomiting and epigastric pain. SMA syndrome is also known as Wilkie's syndrome, mesenteric root syndrome, chronic duodenal ileus syndrome. SMA syndrome is vascular compression of the third part of the duodenum between the SMA and the aorta. In this article, we will present an adult patient with SMA syndrome who was admitted to the emergency service with abdominal pain and associated thrombosis of her superior mesenteric artery, demonstrated by computed tomography. Since SMA syndrome is rare and symptoms are not frequent, some diagnostic difficulties might happen and this will lead unnecessary longterm symptomatic treatments for the patient. In such patients, mesenteric artery thrombosis should be considered in differential diagnosis of abdominal pain.
